Other SEC schools making the cut were Georgia (10), LSU (11), Texas A&M (14), Florida (15) and South Carolina (19). Auburn and Tennessee apparently suck at football and academics, as neither made the list.

The complete list, as compiled on December 11, 2012:

The New America Foundation bases its rankings on several factors: how a football team’s graduation rate compares to that of the school’s overall male student body, how a team’s black-white graduation gap compares to the male black-white graduation gap in the general student population, and the spread between a football team’s black graduation rate and the school’s overall graduation rate for black men.

So when you think of the top academic institutions in the country, add Alabama to the Stanfords, Notre Dames and Northwesterns of the world. The Tide does more than just dominate on the gridiron.

Why would Auburn or Tennessee be on the list? They weren’t a top-25 college football team. The article clearly stated that these were academic performance rankings of the top 25 football teams. Is there something I’m missing or are y’all just looking for something else to make fun of. You have plenty of material already for AU and UT. Stick to that please.

It seemed to clear the sinuses nicely and again, my energy level jumped.
They include chocolate chip, fruit, or nut pancakes. On February 24th, IHOP will
give away a free pancake breakfast to anyone that comes through the doors.
